I am grateful for each and every answer. I did not feel that I was being unreasonable in asking this question. You all have reassured me that it wasn't. Thank you so much for that. I asked if she would have answered it if I would have asked in our first few sessions. She said that she saw no relevance. Questions that are asked are fees, session length, insurance and such, but not things like this.
I say I give up when she starts doing her circling dance around my question. I feel that she is not helping with my fear of asking people questions by constantly doing this dance.

Thanks to all.
